Vietnamese Shaking Beef (Bo Luc Lac) Sun, 17 July 2011 14:57
Marinade:
1 1/2 lbs beef top sirloin, fat trimmed and cut into 1″ cubes
5 cloves crushed garlic
1 tbsp agave or sugar
1 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tbsp fish sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp thick soy sauce (or use low sodium soy sauce)

Vinaigrette:
1/2 cup rice vinegar
1 1/2 tbs sugar (or agave)
1 1/2 tsp kosher salt

Dipping Sauce:
juice of 1 lime
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp fresh cracked pepper

Salad:
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
4 cups watercress leaves or mixed baby greens
2 tomatoes, thinly sliced

1 tbsp canola oil, divided

Combine garlic, oyster sauce, agave or sugar, fish sauce, soy sauce and sesame oil with the beef.

For the vinaigrette combine rice vinegar with salt and sugar. It should be a balance of sour, salty and sweet.

Thinly slice the red onion and use about 1/4 cup of the vinaigrette to pickle and set aside covered in fridge for about 10 minutes. Prepare bed of greens and tomatoes in a serving platter and set aside.

Make dipping sauce by squeezing lime juice over salt and pepper in a small ramekin..

To Freeze: Freeze in freezer safe container.

To Reheat: Marinate steak at least 1 hour before cooking, or overnight for best results. Heat a large wok or pan over high heat. When very hot add 1/2 tbsp oil and when it begins to smoke, add an even layer of beef (half) and allow to sear for about 2 minutes, before “shaking” to sear the opposite sides for about another 1-2 minute more to brown all the sides. Repeat this with the second batch of meat using the remainder of the oil. Transfer beef to bed of watercress and tomatoes. Drizzle remainder of the vinaigrette over the beef and greens and top with pickled red onions. Serve with lime dipping sauce.

We really liked this one too. Even the dipping sauce, though you had to be careful not to get too much...it was strong! We didn't try the salad.

My family loved this dish! It was a 5 star vote all-around. However, when I cook this one I have to leave out the oyster sauce as we are a no shellfish family.
